New Prog Rock Opera from Kingcrow due in May

Date: Wednesday, March 29, 2006

The new album of the Roman progsters Kingcrow, Timetropia, will soon be released by Italy's Lucretia Records International.

The band has just signed an exclusive contract with the Italian label, which will distribute the album worldwide.

Timetropia is a progressive metal album with a sophisticated 90s flavor, made up of elaborate compositions, "fluid" tracks in constant evolution, and melodies sculpted by vocals interpreted with passion and theatrics. It's a prismatic and visionary David Lynch based concept album, in the distinctive Kingcrow style, in which many have seen echoes of Styx, Rush, Kansas, Queen, Queensryche and Savatage!

The band is currently completing the mixing process of the new album, which follows the acclaimed 2004 release Insider.

Final track list given as:
1. A Perfect Life
2. Fading Out Part I 
   Timetropia:
3. Out Of The Darkness
4. Realusion
5. Between Now And Forever
6. Fractured
7. Home
8. A merry-go-round (Chemical Ecstasy)
9. Fragile certainties
10. A hitch-hiker
11. Turn of events in a drawer
12. Fading Out Part I

The mastering process will be entrusted to the famous John Cuniberti at The Plant Mastering Studios (Aerosmith, Metallica, ecc.) in California, and the album is expected to be released by May 2006.

Who?
If it really has echoes of Styx & Kansas then it will most surely suck.
